Civil War–dated partly-printed vellum DS as president, one page, 14.25 x 17.25, February 19, 1863. President Lincoln appoints James F. Lamdin as “a Chief Engineer in the Navy.” Boldly signed at the conclusion by Lincoln and countersigned by Secretary of the Navy Gideon Welles. The orange naval seal affixed to the bottom remains partially intact. Attractively framed to an overall size of 16.25 x 19.25. In very good condition, with heavy intersecting storage folds (one vertical fold passing through a single letter of the signature), scattered foxing and soiling, and a couple areas of light red staining (heavier to left border).
